About this service
Springs act as the main counterweight for your door. If a spring snaps, the door will become extremely heavy and the opener will likely fail. You need immediate professional help if you see a visible gap in the coil or if the door won't lift. Because these parts are under high tension, they should never be handled without proper tools. Costs typically vary based on your door weight and spring cycle rating. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
